Lin Yanzhu, 22, is Shandong’s youngest inheritor of the Jiaodong Huabobo craft. She grew up kneading dough alongside her mother and grandmother and once thought the time-honored craft was overly outdated. Yet vocational training forged a deep bond between her and this intangible cultural heritage (ICH). She retains the cultural essence of traditional patterns while refining the buns’ taste and texture with natural fruit and vegetable powders and coarse grains. Drawing on her artistic expertise, she integrates food carving into her works. She has been featured on CCTV several times, showcasing Jiaodong Huabobo to audiences across the country. She also set up an ICH workshop to raise local villagers’ incomes.
